Cleveland, OH September 12, 2023

The leading handcrafted, wholesale marketplace announces the 9th Virtual Expo and new Shopify integration. Our growth and new features continue IndieMe’s unrivaled presence as a premiere platform for buyers to source Made in the USA and Canada products.

IndieMe Marketplace, LLC has announced its 8th Virtual Expo, which ran August 23-29, 2023, has concluded and the platform is preparing for its 9th Virtual Expo in February 2024.

IndieMe Virtual Expo

Jacqueline Adamany, IndieMe Marketplace, LLC owner explains, “IndieMe created the first handcrafted Virtual show in 2020 to support both the retailer and the artist as physical trade shows began to shutter. Since then, our industry has spoken, and we listened. Virtual trade shows are now an exciting part of a buyer’s shopping experience. Who better than IndieMe to be the leader in virtual trade shows? We continue to add new features to the Virtual Expo and our platform with the success of our members as our number one goal.”

Our most recent August 2023 expo grew by 200% from our first expo in June 2020. We are excited to announce the 9th IndieMe Marketplace Virtual Expo, February 2024, and our NEW Shopify integration.

I love the expo's on IndieMe! It’s turned me to many artist work I normally would not have searched for. Thanks for all you do!

The expertise and industry-specific knowledge provided by IndieMe Marketplace, LLC, positions the company for the concept of a Virtual Expo. “We want to offer the option to stay home and shop during a trade show without the added expense of travel. The Virtual Expo is structured like a traditional trade show: show specials by participating artists, giveaways, and credits to buyers,” shares Jaqueline. The Virtual Expo is free for qualified buyers and a nominal fee is charged to artists.

I have been in this industry for over 35 years, and I have never experienced business like this. It has been nonstop since the first of the year. I owe a lot of this success to IndieMe.com - I have been thrilled with how the site has grown in importance to my overall business over the years - but especially in the last couple of years - lots of new accounts have grown into excellent, reliable customers. The sell-through has been amazing.

Shopify Integration

Our newest feature allows artists to upload products from their Shopify store. “We know our artists are busy and we are continuously looking for ways to help with the daily tasks that keep them away from the design portion of their days, explains Jacqueline.” We are excited about this new integration and look forward to new artists benefiting from it.
